Attorney General John Suthers signed a letter along with nine other attorneys general asking the California Supreme Court to stay the ruling allowing gay marriages until after the November elections. At issue here is that there is a question on the November ballot to outlaw same sex marriage. If the measure were to pass and […]
As The Pueblo Chieftain reports: State Rep. Rafael Gallegos, D-Antonito, probably won’t have a spot on the ballot come August when Democratic voters decide their nominee for House District 62. The two-term lawmaker failed to submit the 1,000 signatures necessary to petition onto the ballot by 5 p.m. Thursday, said Secretary of State spokesman Richard […]
Former Colorado Senate President John Andrews asks the question every voter in the 5th congressional district should be asking. Why should I vote against my accomplished Conservative Republican Congressman, and what is motivating his vanquished challengers to require a re match? …”Why dump a proven conservative … and put another “all about me” contender in […]

(Finally, someone with a report from the convention – promoted by DavidThi808) This years convention in Broomfield was a treat. It got off to a good start, and stayed on schedule most of the day, until, the end when we were a few minutes ahead of schedule. The keynote speaker Mitt Romney, hammered home the […]
Considering that Bentley Rayburn was banned from distributing literature or having a display table at the fifth district assembly, and Doug Lamborn had almost no presence whatsoever, it was interesting to hear the overwhelming voice of discontent when a vote of acclamaition was proposed to put Jeff Crank on the primary ballot. The proposal to […]
We’ve been commenting all season about CD-2 candidate Jared Polis’ propensity for staking out some bold policy position or really good sound bite, only to find himself accused of hypocrisy because of one of his financial holdings, prior on-record statements, et cetera. Recently, though, Polis’ thorough campaign housecleaning seems to have put a stop to […]
The list of blogs credentialed to the DNC is out – and ColoradoPols did not make the list. You’re intrepid reporter will not be there, blogging from the Pepsi Center. Instead they picked Colorado Confidential. Sure they have quality reporters and write excellent news stories. But here on Pols we are number 1 in baseless […]
POLS UPDATE: Do any of you out there in blog land know how this affects the Millionaire’s Amendment for Fitz-Gerald and Shafroth? We don’t know the answer off-hand. If I was in the Fitz-Gerald or Shafroth campaign I’d be freaking out about now. My guess is that Jared assumes this will be his final self-donation […]
The Secretary of State certified 103,377 signatures on Kristi Burton’s Amendment 48 petition. That was well over the 76,000 that she needed to get her amendment on the ballot. http://www.gazette.com/news/ba… As such, I also need to admit that I was wrong in my speculation that this would not get enough signatures to make the ballot.

With the 2008 election approaching at lightening speed, it’s easy to forget about the down-ballot races. But while the votes are being tallied for President, Senator, and Congress, could there be some surprises when we see the results for State House and State Senate? Well, “Face the State” is doing their part to keep these […]
When it’s a Tuesday, someone votes right? It’s been that way for what, five months now? Good thing Idaho voted on Tuesday. Too bad no one cared. Poll Follows… But those of us here in Colorado-we care! Right? I mean, granted Idaho Democrats held their caucuses a while ago, but they still selected nominees for […]
In CD-5 (and CD-6) we have a thankless job for a volunteer. Run as the Democratic candidate in an almost impossible district. Oh, and we want someone who is professional, polished, competent, thoughtful, and has 6 months to devote full time to this quest. In return you will get dragged through the mud and called […]
From a press release from the campaign of Democratic CD-2 candidate Will Shafroth: Shafroth Submits Over 4,600 Petition Signatures to Shatter Both CD2 and Democratic Record Signatures Collected From All 10 Counties in the Second CD; No Paid-Signature Collectors Employed BOULDER, CO – Will Shafroth, candidate for Congress in Colorado’s 2nd Congressional District, today submitted […]
We sheepishly explained to our readers Friday morning that we had been given bad information the night before regarding the felony fraud trial of the former head of the National Renewable Fuels Foundation (NAFF), whose board of directors during the time of the alleged fraud included Senate candidate Bob Schaffer. Contrary to our original update, […]
I have a nonpartisan rhetorical question for you, those whom I respect and whose insights I value. Hopefully, responses will avoid name-calling. Is it too much to ask that people not try to scare me all the time? I admit, it’s a little dramatic and arguably exaggerated, but am I asking too much […]
A day passes and events and words fit into place. 1. The political story of 2007 has been the steady rise of Barack Obama–not the fall of HRC. A visual representation of this is at http://www.pollster.com/08-US-… HRC tried many tactics to stop this unfolding picture–calling Obama a ‘black candidate’ who can’t win, calling him too […]
Politics West reports moral arbiters Focus on the Family don’t think John McCain was rude enough to Ellen DeGeneres yesterday when he appeared on her talk show and failed to foam at the mouth denouncing gay marriage. “We’re disappointed in John McCain’s statement on California’s Supreme Court ruling,” said Tom Minnery, a senior Vice President […]

I had lunch today with Joe Whitcomb who is running for SD-23. He got lost finding the restaurant (his iPhone was showing the wrong location of the restaurant). However, he broke the second law of guy-ness (according to Dave Barry) and called me and asked for directions. Joe is a trade-offs nerd. We talked about […]

Dear Senator McCain, Put this in your vote against the GI Bill and smoke it: The Houston Chronicle did a long takeout on Sunday on the suicide in March 2007 of an Army recruiting sergeant, Nils Aron Andersson – just one day after his marriage to Carry Walton. Sgt. Andersson, 25, had spoken of the […]
Friends, As promised in my last posting, I am going to continue with my discussion on energy, even though I started the last one with Rocky’s shopping trip. When I wrote the last posting about the grocery bill, ethanol, etc., I had no idea that it would find its way to ColoradoPols.com. WOW! I really […]
It is an sure bet that the California SC decision striking down the statuary bans on same sex marriage will an above the fold political story for a few days. But what about after that? How much will this change the race nationally and in Colorado? The New York Times is already opining that it […]
